Angel di Maria says he was convinced about joining Manchester United by former Real Madrid teammate Cristiano Ronaldo. Ronaldo won three Premier League titles, two FA Cups, two League Cups and the Champions League at United, before moving to Real Madrid in 2009.
"Before we knew I was coming to Manchester for sure, he [Ronaldo] told me it was a massive club and that I would be very happy here and it would be good for me," Di Maria told Inside United.
"At that time, we didn't know for sure that I was coming or not, so we didn't go into great detail, but what he did say helped me greatly to make my decision."
